Description
Nicholson 48 – Offshore Ketch | Iconic Design, Solid Refit Opportunity Crafted by Camper & Nicholsons/Halmatic to a Raymond Wall design, this 1975 Nicholson 48 stands as a timeless choice for serious bluewater cruising. With just 42 built, this model remains highly regarded among offshore enthusiasts. While this particular yacht would benefit from cosmetic and systems upgrades, it presents an excellent platform for an adventurous owner to create a capable ocean cruiser. Built to last, her GRP hull was stripped and professionally re-glassed with two additional layers in 2012, enhancing strength and integrity. The yacht’s moderate-length encapsulated keel, skeg-hung rudder, and 14,000+ kg displacement deliver safe, comfortable offshore performance. A Perkins 4-236 diesel engine (with new shaft and exhaust), ketch rig, extensive sail wardrobe, and impressive tankage—nearly 1,000L of water and 860L of fuel—equip her well for long-range voyaging. Below deck, the rare 4-cabin, 8-berth layout combines traditional teak craftsmanship with a raised saloon, offering excellent light and space. Air conditioning, a large refrigerator, and a washing machine hint at great liveaboard potential, pending completion of refit work. Now offered through Williams & Smithells International Ltd, experts in distinctive offshore yachts, this Nicholson 48 awaits new custodians ready to bring her back to glory.
